6 Reasons Why Mary is the Queen of Angels

Mary, although very popular in the Catholic religion, is actually an ascended master who works with people of all faiths. Her energy is gentle yet strong, constant, nurturing, grounded and wise. Mary is an ideal divine entity to call upon if there is a situation you need to surrender to. Mary understands as well as anyone the many challenges, lessons and limitations of earthly life, so Mary will often enter our lives when we need someone to stand beside us during our trials. If you want to be a parent, are in the midst of raising children or are observing the paths of adult children, you can call on Mary in your thoughts, prayers or journal for advice—and she will always answer.

Mary is sometimes referred to as the Queen of Angels. That is partly because she's had so many interactions with angels: Her own birth was predicted by angels, and Archangel Gabriel personally gave Mary the news that she was destined to be the mother of Jesus. But more than that, Mary has much in common with the angels. The following are some traits the angels and Mary share.

Mary Will Support You During Difficult Times

Just like angels, Mary is very present and attentive to those experiencing challenges. Your guardian angels never leave you, and Mary's energy is also extremely constant and faithful, especially when you are down or struggling. Angels offer their support whether you ask for it or not, and Mary will often pick folks who are walking a difficult path and walk beside them—regardless of whether she has been formally called upon.

Even when angels cannot intervene and dramatically change a situation in our lives, they always stay close so we are never alone. Mary provides the same sort of comfort to those in crisis, just as she stood at the feet of her son while he was on the cross. Mary's presence acts as a witness to our suffering, and she never leaves our side until the storm passes and the sun is shining again.

Mary Possesses the Same Wisdom as the Angels

Over the course of a lifetime, human beings have a range of experiences, and if you think about Mary's earthly life you have to admit she's truly seen it all. She's been a daughter, sister, wife and mother. She lived through great turbulence in the world and also many miracles. In addition, Mary had some out-of-the-box experiences, like bearing the child of Spirit from an immaculate conception. This child rose to great fame, yet suffered just as greatly. Mary's vast knowledge of both earthly life and the Divine make her the ideal confidant and counselor.

If you're looking for good advice about how to handle an aspect of your earthly journey, or want insight into Spirit's plan for your life, ask angels for guidance. But you can also ask Mary. She might plant an “aha” idea into your mind, or help you see a solution where before there was only confusion.

Mary Acts as an Advocate

Both the angels and Mary have a close relationship with Spirit. Pray to Mary and the angels when you need someone to advocate for you with the Divine, because Mary and the angels have an inside track. Have you ever met someone in your industry who is "connected"? They know the right people and understand how to work the system. It's the same with Mary and the angels, who have connections in very high places.

Angels are tenderhearted, and Mary is likewise very compassionate. That means Mary will work earnestly to plead your case with Spirit and alert the appropriate angels, archangels, spirit guides and ascended masters to your plight. In this way Mary can bring more grace and mercy into your life. She might even call on her son, Jesus, to help you!

Mary's Energy is Angelic

Besides sending amazing people and opportunities into your life, and giving you ideas and gut instincts about which action steps to take, angels love to send you celestial energy. This angelic energy is very calming, joyful and loving, and can help shift or soften your own energy.

Mary's energy is also quite powerful and, like the angels' energy, is very maternal. Mary's signature energy is best described as grounded and even. It is the type of energy one needs to persevere. It is a caretaker's energy, a nurturer's energy; the energy of someone who has weathered many storms. It is an energy that says "stay the course." If you call on Mary, or if she decides on her own to come to your aid, don't be surprised if you experience an increase of feelings like calmness and courage.

Mary is Sensitive

People usually think of all the ways angels are different from humans, but in many important aspects angels and humans are extremely similar. Angels have hearts and souls just like we do, and they feel emotions—theirs and ours—deeply. Mary is also highly sensitive, and naturally attuned to the suffering of others. She really does see—and feel—our pain.

It is Mary's sensitivity which, like that of the angels, inspires her to help so many. Mary's sensitivity allows her to easily perceive who is carrying a heavy burden, and because she can feel the emotions of others so acutely Mary knows exactly what you are going through, which gives her amazing insight into how she can help. If you are also very empathetic and sensitive to the emotions of others, ask Mary to help you set healthy boundaries and learn when it's appropriate to tune in to, and out of, other people's emotions.

Mary Offers Unconditional Love

You can never alienate an angel. They won't turn their wings on you no matter what you do, no matter what the circumstances. The same is true of Mary. If you're feeling abandoned or like someone you care for is judging you or being very conditional with their affection, turn to Mary for some guaranteed TLC. You can even pray to Mary and ask if she can soften the hearts of the people in your life, or point you in the direction of someone in your life who is good at offering unconditional love.

If you're having trouble forgiving someone, or forgiving yourself, go to Mary for assistance. She might help you see things from the other person's perspective, or help you see the person you want to forgive from a higher, soul perspective. Mary could also be called the Queen of Hearts, because she can work on your heart and help you forgive yourself.
